Looks like Relic is being bought by Sega which means we can possibly expect still awesome creative products from dawn of war.

Assuming GW didn't take back the license when THQ derped.

Not saying they have, just saying about counting chickens and that.

It's probably gone back to GW, it wasn't listed with the other THQ licences, however haven't they just got the Warhammer licence ? so it wouldn't be a stretch for them to pick up the 40k one as well if it's available again...

I believe Relic owns the license, not THQ, so the license will go with Relic to Sega (Sega is the publisher, like THQ was before). But this will open up more opportunities for DoW, like Total War: Warhammer 40k.

Sega had already acquired the licence for Warhammer previously... which with the formation blocks would work better than 40k I think
